For most of us, the fall/winter season sparks our desire to dive into the back of our closets and rustle up our beloved chunky neutrals and solid basics. There's just something about the colder months that makes us want to play it safe with our outfit choices – I mean, it's only natural! While we love taking it back to the basics, we think it's time to start dressing for how we want to feel, not just for the seasons.

What Is Dopamine Dressing?

Dopamine dressing originally became popular during the pandemic, as people were looking for unique, expressive ways to beat the quarantine blues. The trend is all about wearing certain colors or styles that release the feel-good chemical (dopamine 😉) in our bodies. And let's be honest, we could all use some more of that in our day-to-day lives (especially during the winter months!).

Adding dopamine dressing to your outfit rotation is easier than you think (and the perfect way to scare off those winter blues)! So whether you're into bright colors and funky patterns or you just want to experiment with your personal style, look no further. We're here to give you all the happy outfit inspo!
